Pharmacist - I Shall Believe

Pharmacist published on his YT channel this warped Sheryl Crow cover song. Country swag got replaced with droning keys and sad crooning, and it works pretty great. Expect this song to appear on Pharmacist's bandcamp soon.

Tenderness Of Wolves - Colours // video

Official video for "Colours" just dropped, directed by the band, it's a dark and witchy cover of The Sisterhood. "Colours" EP is available now through Lunagram Recordings on Bandcamp, you can check my mini-review of it here.

Lieu Noir - Absent Gods & Dead Immortals

Long-awaited new album "Absent Gods & Dead Immortals" from Lieu Noir just dropped on Paso Inferior Tapes bandcamp. There are currently three tracks available for stream, that suggest a sonic coctail of dreampunk ambience, lo-tempo beats and distorted black metal vocals. "Opium Stash" sounds like a recording of Orcs plotting a raid, sick. A must buy for the next bandcamp day.

Cop the album here, and stream it below.

Kxxtz - Live From Kontrol Faktory Berlin (3 Hour B​-​day Mix)

Hey, it's Kutmah's birthday and to celebrate it he recorded this 3+ hour long mixtape of minimal wave, post-punk, shoegaze, indie and everything in between. No need to spill more thoughts, the mix is dope and Kutmah's story that goes with it should put you in the right mindset:

"In L.A as a teen I used to stay up all night (sober, I was straight edge till age 24) drawing in my sketchbook listening to harsh and beautiful noises in my headphones. Once my mum fell asleep I would sneak out and go skate the church by my house or some nights we would go to Kontrol Faktory in Hollywood and dance our heads off or play pool while some dude was getting whipped by a domi ... The band Babyland would drum with chainsaws on metal lids and let off full cans of air fresheners ... That shit smelled horrible With this mix I'm transporting you to these exciting times with a taste of the bar scene from fire walk with me"

Bestial Mouths - I Am The Spell // video

New video from Bestial Mouths, taken from their upcoming album 'R.O.T.T. (inmyskinn)' and directed by Nath Milburn. Inspired "by experiences with bullies and abusers", the single aims to reclaim the power from them through this goth/industrial composition (that brings to mind early ∆AIMON tracks). You can cop the single here.

Levan Shanidze - Erozia

Levan Shanidze is a musician from Georgia (the country), now based in London, who released a couple of months ago his new album "Erozia" on Mexican imprint Inner Most. Sitting at the intersection of modern classical music, ambient landscapes and free-jazz, the album sounds like a calmer, more celestial cousin of Ben Frost's By "The Throat" - while it still flirts with nature and organic sounds, it feels more like a meditation music rather than hair-raiser.

"Erozia" is out on cassette tapes which can be ordered here. Alternatively you can check the album below.

CH Rom - It's The CH Rom Band

I remember teasing this a few months back, and today I realised the album must be out. Well, here it is in all its wacky glory. "Bizzaro synth-pop jams for mutant millenial opera set in a (post) consumerist world" was the phrase I used to describe the singles promoting "It's The CH Rom Band", and this still sticks. Totally out-there LP, sort of like flipping through the TV channels in the early 90s on mushrooms. If you're looking for something different, look no further.

The album is available for free on bandcamp. Stream below.
